Wampee plant

Wampee is an attractive evergreen tree that produces clusters of highly aromatic, grape-like fruit. It's relatively hardy for a subtropical tree and can tolerate light frosts once matured. The fruit turns yellow when ripe and should be left on the tree as long as possible for increased sweetness. Pruning should be minimal since fruit grows only on the tips of branches.

Optimal growth conditions for the Wampee plant include plenty of sunlight, well-drained soil, and rich organic matter. It is crucial to protect the plant from frost and wind, as it prefers warm and sheltered locations. Additionally, be sure to avoid wet and cold roots for optimal growth. It thrives in subtropical to tropical climates and, once established, can tolerate brief drops to -3°C. Protect young trees from frost and cold winds.
